Ive seen both reccomended as a proper formulation of genuine political economy textbooks that are more than the theoretical writings like Kapital and such. However I wanted to get a second opinion since I don’t see these resources talked about that much and I’m unsure if there is a better fit for a more modern audience (me), or how much they overlap/compliment each other.
Meanwhile, I should add, I have read the first two books I mentioned above at the very beginning of my original post and I can honestly vouch for them.
But honestly not the Shanghai one.
